Chapter 1258 A Deadly Secret (1)
?After flying for 6 hours, they soon spotted a ‘deserted’ island in the ocean of lava.
It was actually the Goddess Destiny that had told them, “There are no cultivators except for the profound beasts that are on this island.”
The Goddess Destiny had scanned the entire island with her divine sense and had told Ji Yuan about the result.
Ji Yuan was in awe as he muttered to himself: Her divine sense is so powerful. I wonder when I can be like her. Alas, I wish I can pay more attention to my spirit cultivation.
Actually he did not know that the 10th cultivation realm is the ‘Spatial’ realm and he would be able to scan the entire island with his divine sense in the future too when he was a true divinity.
It is impossible to surprise a true divinity and no amount of stealth or practice would be enough.
Even if Ji Yuan concealed his presence, a true divinity would still be able to see him with their divine sense.
However, he didn’t know about this and moreover, even many cultivators did not know about this as well.
In fact, when Ji Yuan was attempting to sneak into the perimeter of the palace or when he was talking to Shui Xisi, the Goddess Destiny was already aware of his presence.
But she had decided to eavesdrop on their conversations in secret first.
It was only when Shui Xisi had called them out then she had walked slowly from her personal room to the hall to greet Ji Yuan and the Holy Maiden Ling Ya.
Ji Yuan and his group soon found a cave in one of the mountain peaks of this deserted island and they had decided to hide in there for the time being.
Ji Yuan said to his group with a weak chuckle, “Let’s hope that we are not being pursued aggressively by them.”
The Goddess Destiny smiled wryly, “Don’t worry. I’ve already removed all traces of our profound signatures from the vicinity. Unless they are able to use some powerful scrying profound treasures to find us, we will be safe.”
Indeed.
Just before they had flown down from the skies, the Goddess Destiny had waved her hand to display her profound force again, this time it was to totally dissipate all their profound signatures from the vicinity.
Even the best tracker would find it impossible to find them because she had completely removed all profound signatures from their presence in the vicinity and for a hundred miles around.
The effort to do this was relatively simple and effortless for the Goddess Destiny and hence, Ji Yuan and his group did not know about this.
Shui Xisi chuckled, “It is so good that we have the Goddess Destiny with us.”
As the daughter of the Great God Pangu and the Great Goddess Alice, she was aware of the Goddess Destiny’s ability to remove their presence and she was not entirely surprised by it.
But for Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue, Xu Yifei and the Holy Maiden Li Ya, they were all startled by it and was in awe much like Ji Yuan.
Ji Yuan was not exactly surprised by the Goddess Destiny’s ability to conceal all of them as he had already suspected that she was spying on them while he was inside the Oracle Gate with Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina.
Now that they were inside the cave, Ji Yuan had some questions for the Holy Maiden Ling Ya.
So he told them about what they knows and how they had rescued the Holy Maiden Ling Shan.
He said to her, “This is what we know about the Holy Maiden Ling Shan. We’ve thought that we are helping her but I am beginning to have some regrets now. What exactly is your relationship with her and how was she captured by the Desolate Venom Sect?”
Ji Yuan could not resist adding, “You won’t lie to us, right? After all, I had saved you.”
The Holy Maiden Ling Ya took a pitiful look at Ji Yuan as she sighed heavily, “So in her eyes, I am merely only a 8 year old child that had usurped her position? This is all a lie. I am the rightful leader of the Ivy League Sect…”
Then she added melancholy, “The Ivy league Sect always have two holy maidens to lead the cultivation sect. The left and the right. It is always the Left Holy Maiden that is leading the sect while the Right Holy Maiden serves as the assistant sect leader…”
The Holy Maiden Ling Ya sighed, “However, Ling Shan is more popular with the elders as she has always advocated war with the Desolate Underworld Alliance, especially against the Desolate Venom Sect that is leading the Desolate Underworld Alliance….”
Ji Yuan interrupted with a soft chuckle, “Well, she is more popular for another reason though.”
He had seen her dual cultivating with her elders and even making them into her living cauldrons. As her living cauldrons, they have to obey her command.
Shui Xisi tugged Ji Yuan’s sleeves as she stared at him coldly, “Stop interrupting and listen first.”
But Ji Yuan simply laughed coldly.
The Holy Maiden Ling Ya actually knows what Ji Yuan was referring to and said with lowered eyes, “She has many affairs
with the elders and they have all succumbed under her skirt…”
Then she looked up and said, “One day, she had offered to be a concubine of the Demon Emperor An Taiji and she has a bold plan to assassinate him. Naturally, I had tried to stop her but it was futile.”
“She did succeed in assassinating the Demon Emperor An Taiji but she was also captured as well. Up to this point, even I think that she would be dead by now. But as you have already known, she was rescued by your group and has even returned to the Ivy League Sect.”
Ji Yuan asked curiously, “There is another matter which I do not understand. I’ve fought against the many cultivation experts of the Desolate Venom Sect and even against the Demoness Empress An Xuanji. She is really strong. I don’t understand how she can make an enemy out of the Desolate Venom Sect and even the powerful cultivators of the Desolate Venom Sect.”
The Holy Maiden Ling Ya said quietly to Ji Yuan, “She isn’t a 7th realm cultivator but a 8th realm half-immortal. She is stronger than you think she is.”
“Also,” she began to sigh. “The Poison Ivy Veins is originally a present from our true master to the Desolate Venom Sect. Now that she has obtained it back, I fear that she may be even stronger than before.”
Ji Yuan asked with a startled look, “What true master?”
The Holy Maiden Ling Ya appeared to hesitate, “This is supposed to be a deadly secret of our two cultivation sects…”
